Young & Broke NYC – “Livin’ it up on a Budget”

Zzzzzzzz….It’s a rainy Friday afternoon and you need some excitement. Here it is — an awesome new online publication by a brilliant yogi-diva!

img_50802As you start to plan your weekend, you’re probably feeling bummed about the rain but hey at least the temperature has entered the 60s! That means, parks, rooftops, frisbees, outdoor yoga classes, dog-walks – all very soon! But, for now get some tips on whats goin’ on this Saturday and Sunday from an expert at Young and Broke NYC.

img_26273Though it is called Young and Broke NYC, you don’t need to be either in order to appreciate. And if you are, you may have found your new virtual best friend! In addition to being city savvy, Carmen Da Silva, creator of Y&B is a yoga teacher and owner of Urban Vinyasa. She not only brings light to the benefits of mind, body and spirit but now to those of the recession! As a Village expert, she’s created a super snazzy website with the best advice on dining, music and all types of hidden free stuff. Carmen makes it her business to find the latest trends and best ways to live it up in NYC, without having to break the bank.

Whether you’re new or old to the city, check out who’s got the best happy hour deals, where to go for free concerts, who’s giving out free haircuts and even… free steaks!?

LAVENDER: (Noun) Shade of purple associated with femininity, refinement, grace, and elegance. Purple and its lighter lavender shades have a special, almost sacred place in nature: lavender, orchid, lilac, and violet flowersare often delicate and considered precious. Lavender is used in aromatherapy to balance unstable emotions, put emotions back in control, and to bring logical and rationale back to the mind, helping such medically defined problems as hysteria, panic attacks and anxiety.

SENSE: (Noun) Meaning, intelligence, consensus or understanding conveyed as in speech or writing drawn from a stimulus outside or inside the body via the faculties of hearing, sight, smell, touch, taste, and equilibrium.

LAVENDER SENSE: (Noun) Meaning and understanding derived from the feminine essence of nature and grace; refined and preserved to evoke and align emotions, logic and rationale to the mind and body.
